This update to the Cascadia family of fonts brings the following changes:

• We are now generating static TTFs for every named variant
  • These static instances will be hinted using ttfautohint, and so will look different than the variable font at small and intermediate point sizes
• We've temporarily stopped shipping variable OTFs due to some concerns about overlapping and psautohint
• The heaviest weight of Cascadia has been made a little lighter
• We have aligned the Powerline glyphs and the box-/line-drawing glyphs better to their metrics and to the letter glyphs
• Diacritic anchors have been added to all alphabetic characters (#282, #330)
• The font now ships with decomposed fi and fl ligatures
• The horn combining diacritic has had its weight fixed somewhat for Bold
• Primes have been redesigned to give them a more "angled" feel (#294)
• Acute and grave have been given additional weight to help differentiate them from dot (#268)
• The contextual alternate for x used to signify hexadecimal numbers has been disabled (#285)
